Things to Know about Group Camping

• Advance group camping reservations and permits are required for groups of seven or more people, including leaders.
• If your party exceeds ten, you must split into two or more groups (of ten or less), each independent and traveling on completely separate itineraries. For groups of ten or more people breaking up into small parties (1-6 people), a permit must still be obtained in advance.
• Groups of seven or more people may only camp in reserved group campsites.
• Organizations may not have more than 20 people camping on the island at any one time and are limited to 80 people per year.
